Starlight is trapped in a nightmare where she must play the role of Alice as she travels through Wonderland. Her adventure becomes a mystery as she tries to figure out who is behind it all, and how to stop it. Sunburst tries to help her through the story, but it seems that he does not belong there and whoever is in control is trying to push him away from Starlight. Unable to use their magic, and with all of their friends acting strange, the two must face the world of Wonderland... and keep from losing their heads.

Roddy, a young pegasus colt that dreams to be a Wonderbolt decides to race one of Equestria's new express trains.

(Equestria's rail network for this is based on British Railways before nationalisation where the railways consisted of the Big Four rail companies.)

(Please let me know if this requires more tags, I'm not sure what other tags are necessary)

Comet has been granted a new opportunity in life. For as long as he can remember, he has always wanted to explore the world outside of Starlight Ridge and see what it is like. But that dream has always been that: a dream. But what happens when dreams become reality and he finally gets the chance to pursue a new path with Violet Frost’s blessing? What will he do with it?

He doesn’t have the answer. But perhaps Izzy can guide him to it…

"But you,/My brother in arms,/I'd rather I'd lose my limbs,/Than let you come to harm." -The Decemberists, 'The Soldiering Life'

With the world at war, Sandbar is a timid pony soldier trying to help wherever he can. As he looked out on to the quiet battlefield, the stallion thought he saw something move. Upon investigating, he discovers an ensnared yak. Together, the two do what they can to survive in an hostile war zone. And there, something between them begins to bloom.

In Starlight Ridge, strange sounds have been heard. some kind of creepy ambient like music is playing from a distant mountain, every day and night at 12PM/AM. Meanwhile in Maretime Bay, Sprout is wishing he could have a taste of adventure like the mane 6, and when Misty is sought after to find out the meaning behind the strange noises, Sprout may have just gotten his wish. Will they be able to find the source of these strange noises? Read on to find out.

This story is a crossover between ‘MLP Make Your Mark’, and ‘My Singing Monsters the lost landscapes: Knottshurr Island’. Knottshurr Island’s full song is available here; https://youtu.be/Had4uDfyK58?si=ttHqkujNJd2twq7K I suggest you listen to the song to better understand the story and which character is being described. Knottshurr Island was made by youtubers ‘Uksus’ and ‘Raw Zebra’. Go watch them both, they both make very high quality content.

Season 9 has come to a close, Cozy Glow, Tirek, and Chrysalis, the greatest threats Equestria has ever faced so far, have been taken down for good.

So far...

Even with all of the magic and power that exists within Equestria, no one is aware of what lies beyond it, just out of reach. Innumerable other worlds, each with their own unique laws and characters, all existing in parallel without ever knowing of each other...

All of this changes when an evil the universes have never seen appears, tearing holes in the fabric of reality itself and finally allowing these worlds to come into contact with one another, but at the cost of everything being in danger as the D@RkN3sS consumes everything it touches. All thanks to the transgressions of - [DATA ERROR].

Can Twilight and her friends, along with characters from their universe and beyond, stop what seems inevitable? Or is everything doomed to be consumed?

This is a story that revolves around the incredibly popular concept of "Learning with Pibby," which was first coined by Adult Swim in October 2021. The concept video features a glitch-like corruption that invades and destroys any world it happens to manifest in. As shown in the trailer, it threatens the existence of cartoons and animation as a whole. Of course, they can only use cartoons they own because of copyright laws. But that doesn't apply here, does it?

Welcome to When Darkness Falls, a story that follows Twilight, her friends, and many new ones, as they adventure to both survive and stop the corruption when it comes to their world.

To get the most context for what Learning with Pibby is, and to get a good idea of what to expect here, I'm going to leave a link to the official trailer HERE.

In future chapters, I will be making use of some rather unique concepts and takes to how the story is told, which depending on the reader may have mixed reaction. However, I have tried my best to make them understandable and enjoyable for everyone. These concepts aim to add a new dimension to the story and another layer of immersion for the reader.

There is also a ton of lore scattered throughout, both original lore written by me and other members of the Learning with Pibby community, as well as official lore from many of the TV shows that I use to inform the main storyline. Enough that they deserve their own blog posts rather than the Author's Notes because they'd be too long. Regardless, the Author's Notes still contain the bare minimum of what you need to understand the corresponding chapter. The blogs are more or less just for in-depth lore/explanation.

And a huge shoutout to the one person who’s helped me the most to stay motivated and confident in my work, ScorchingFlamesInc. Without them I might not have had the same level of motivation I did to finally finish this remaster. They also happen to be the author of another fic on this same concept, just a different take, which I very much recommend you check out (after you’re done here of course.)

Small Disclaimers:
-This story does change some of the main timeline of FiM, but is not an AU. Everything up until season nine is the same, but The Last Problem never happens for reasons that become evident early on.
-This story is set to be a crossover of massive proportions, and while there are only a few featured at the moment, there will be many, many characters and world’s of animation from the 90s to present day shown as either cameos or playing big roles in the grander storyline. This roster so far includes (updated as new chapters come out):
MLP: FiM, MLP: EQG, Learning with Pibby, The Fairly Oddparents and The Amazing World of Gumball.
-The tags on this story aren't indicative of what's already in the story. Rather, the tags are for safe measure, for things that aren't in the story yet, but will be down the road.

Comments and other feedback are greatly appreciated and encouraged. This story so far has proved to be a monumental task, especially for a first time writer such as myself, so your feedback and constructive criticisms are very much appreciated.
